ARGOCD

This is a repository to build a k8s based, argocd-orchestrated software thingamabob.

Installation

0. Have a k8s cluster with traefik as ingress controller
1. Install argocd: helm install --repo https://argoproj.github.io/argo-helm argocd argo-cd --namespace=argocd --create-namespace
2. Follow the instruction from the chart (wait until the pods are up):
   1. start a port forwarding: kubectl port-forward service/argocd-server -n argocd 8080:443
   2. get the initial password: kubectl -n argocd get secret argocd-initial-admin-secret -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d
3. Login with the argo CLI: argocd login localhost:8080
   • optional: change password: argocd account update-password
4. Register the application package: argocd app create apps --dest-namespace argocd --dest-server https://kubernetes.default.svc --repo https://github.com/chtime/argocd-apps.git --path apps
5. Sync the root application: argocd app sync apps
6. Sync argocd to configure ingress: argocd app sync argocd
7. Login again under the new ingress: argocd login argocd.k3s.internal
8. Initialize the other applications

WIP

# syncing traefik CDR first, so that the other resources can be interpreted
argocd app sync apps --local apps --resource argoproj.io:Application:traefik

# currently, for some reason metallb is not initialized properly
helm repo add metallb https://metallb.github.io/metallb
helm install metallb metallb/metallb -f metallb/values.yaml
